Richard's burial date is given in a note to the Visitation, along with the description of him as 'of Ellenthorpe'. Either he was very old when he died or the date should have been attributed to his son.

The Visitation first identifies Richard's 2nd wife as Katherine, dau of Sir Thomas Malyverer of Allerton, but then, in a note, identifies her as Lucy Bourchier whose sister Katherine married Sir Richard Malyverer of Allerton.
